It is a great team building, hen / stag or birthday activity.

moviESCAPE

moviESCAPE is Stockport's premier movie themed escape rooms. Built and designed by a team of filmmakers, our escape rooms are designed to put you inside the movies.

Reviewed By SeanEvans91 - Stoke-on-Trent, United Kingdom

Today we visited MoviESCAPE and it's clear to see the venue is run by movie fans who want to bring the magic of the movies into an escape room venue. With theatre style detailed sets the brand new Haunted House II: Demon's Curse maze was intriguing and immersive with a great use of special effects and some thought-provoking puzzles. Whilst it wasn't particularly scary (hence being targeted at ages 12+) the maze provided that immersion into the story and special effects certainly added towards that atmosphere. Almost like a Disney / indie horror crossover at times it was great fun to be inside the room and whilst we didn't escape in the time allotted there was only two of us attempting the room. One puzzle did throw us completely off but the rather cool way of getting a hint and the way in which the hint was delivered was almost pushing me to ask for help on every puzzle as the audio replies gelled with the room so effortlessly. Detailed, immersive and great fun! Would definitely revisit again as the Merlin and Sherlock rooms both look absolutely stunning, i'm a big sucker for theming and other than the more simplistic Meth Lab escape room the other rooms were spot on in detail and immersion.

My friends and I here in America played the virtual version of The Exorcist room and were completely impressed. Highly recommend! Gameplay went as smoothly as butter. Players have a host and a cameraman to guide them through the puzzles. Unlike your standard IRL rooms where the hosts are part-timers who mostly work behind the scenes, these guys are clearly immaculate professionals with a performance background. After our session, we talked about how James' experience as a magician helped him create the special effects. He even took a demonology course so he could sound more knowledgeable when answering player questions. Apparently, the actual Crowley manor is located nearby the escape room, which explains the ER's attention to historical detail. Now, I will say that my friend group are savvy escape room enthusiasts and we only got out with 17 sec to spare. The puzzles aren't particularly hard, but finding the clues and talking with the host slows things down (not in a bad way, though!). This just means newbie escapers might not win the game, although I think they'll still enjoy it immensely. And maybe I'm wrong. The host was a total pro and it's possible he'd provide more hints to newbies that would help push things along faster.

As long as we can park in a suitable, free and safe location (we can advise) we can operate, allowing tourists and visitors to also benefit!

This was a fantastic escape experience. We chose the largest of the options, for a 1 hour max experience. Booking this for a birthday, where we couldn't currently go to an escape room location, this was a fantastic surprise to have turn up on the drive, and well worth the money for the ease and accessibility of the experience. The guy who brought the van to us was really helpful and informative. The van was surprisingly spacious for four of us to explore and solve puzzles in with no issue and there was an amazing range of puzzles to test us throughout the van. It was definitely taxing, although we managed to escape, and for the size and space available, it can definitely be rated highly as an escape room experience. They were also very good with the clues - helpful and still cryptic, without being too on the nose, or too complicated when we has a few struggles with some of the more difficult puzzles. Particularly during the current covid circumstances, where we felt it might not be possible to go to an escape room site, it was fantastic that the escape room could be brought to our door, in a safe and clean way. They were very clear in explaining how the room was set up and health and safety and ensured that we could access cleaning products before we went in and throughout, and were very clear on mask wearing, and being able to step out if we had any worries, which we didn't need to. I can highly recommend them as an experience.

This was my second time at Escape Hunt - I’ve probably tried around 10 escape rooms now and Escape Hunt is one of my favourites. Both times have been with family and have been great - Ben was our host this time and was in character until the very end. It was my dads first escape room & he had a great time - we were in the Samurai room. Although fantastic again with lots of surprises, my favourite is still the Alice in Wonderland room which we loved (thanks to Stef who was a fantastic host then too as the Cheshire Cat!)
